Stellarium scope / Stellarium telescope control

Is there a current procedure available for setting up Stellarium telescope control of my HEQ5 Pro Mount
The one I’m using is from IIS 12th March 2010 by Karl Louwersen and it’s outdated ( I’m using the latest Stellarium version 0.18.0 )
Prerequisites
I have a brand new laptop Omen i7 processor with 32GB ram ( heaps of memory )
I have latest ASCOM installed
I have EQMOD installed
I have latest Stellarium Scope installed ( 26/12/2016 )
I have a USB serial adapter connected between Laptop and mount with its driver installed ( I can see COM3 port on Device Manager )
I have Synscan HC set to PC direct
All latitude longitude etc data is entered and com port COM3 selected
I’ve selected EQMOD ASCOM EQ5/6 am click properties then OK
ASCOM window is displayed

Need next procedures for current version of Stellarium

Any help appreciated

Thanks in advance
